Technical insight for complex marine environments

MetOceanWorks make a real difference to our projects. We have always found their models to be of very high quality, and their experience shines through in the advice they give. These things combined with their willingness and flexibility makes the whole path to certification so much easier and less stressful for us.” Emily Last – Project Manager at Vattenfall

MetOceanWorks consistently demonstrates flexibility, quickly adapting to evolving project needs without compromising quality. The team is a pleasure to work with and is always available to clarify or dive deep into bespoke questions and analysis, regardless of how far they fall outside typical deliverables. Their technical excellence and thoroughness ensure smooth certification of metocean datasets and analysis.”

David Darbinyan – Project Manager at SSE

“I would like to thank you once again for the great work performed on our project. You have been efficient and proactive, while being open to discussions and very pleasant to work with.” Lucas Beaury – Project Manager at EDF

MetOceanWorks supplied West of Orkney with our pre FEED metocean hindcast and detailed metocean study. As usual they came in under budget and on time, we were delighted in the close match their models got with our measurements, and the sophisticated analytical techniques used to drive down our metocean criteria. I’d wholeheartedly recommend MetOceanWorks for any project looking for sound metocean advice. Thanks for all your help.”

Jake Royle - Wind and Metocean package manager at West of Orkney Offshore Windfarm

“I have had very good experiences when I collaborated with Andrew Watson. He has great skill and knowledge and is very easy to work with.”

George Z. Forristall - Principal at Forristall Ocean Engineering, Inc.

MetOceanWorks execute their modelling and site assessment studies to a standard which ensures the data products can be easily applied to engineering and operational planning. Their knowledge ensures that the studies are readily accepted by certification bodies.” Mark Calverley - Director at Blue Ocean Consulting

“For many years, we’ve trusted the MetOceanWorks European hindcast as our favoured model for developing design and operational metocean criteria. Its reliability stands out through validation against measured data and their intuitive data portal makes it easy for us to analyse spatial variability while efficiently extracting the data we need. It’s been an invaluable tool for our projects.”
